How do you connect online with your loved ones, your friends, your co-workers? Facebook, Facebook Messenger, Twitter, LinkedIn, Snapchat, Instagram, YouTube, WhatsApp? Do you shop on Amazon.com, eBay or other sites? Do you use a desktop, laptop, smartphone – or do you even have a fitness tracker? The “bad actors” do, too – and they are watching! It used to be you could handle all your privacy settings just by making sure your phone number was unlisted, but things have sure changed. All the common ways you connect with family and friends have privacy settings – settings you can and should check and update regularly. Most people in the U.S. connect to at least one social platform at least once a day – and the majority connect more than once in multiple ways. Here are three ways to help you keep your private information private.
Even if you check and update your settings regularly, be sure to check out professional identity theft protection. It can detect additional forms of identity fraud with existing accounts, or criminal, medical, or Social Security misuse.
